Consumer Description

THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS REPLACED ON THE VEHICLE AT AROUND 60K. THE CHECK EMISSION LIGHT WAS GOING ON AND OFF THE PAST FEW WEEKS (STARTING IN JULY 2012). TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. NOW AT AROUND 90K (AUGUST 2012), THE REPLACED CATALYTIC CONVERTER NEEDS REPAIRS (APPROXIMATELY $1000 IN REPAIRS). WHY IS THE VEHICLE HAVING PROBLEMS AGAIN WITH THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER?
